Girl All The Bad Guys Want

(I’ve given up trying a long time ago)
Â 8 o’clock, Monday night and I’m waitin’
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me.
Her name is Nona, she’s a rocker with a nose ring,
She wears a two way, but I’m not quite sure what that means.
And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She doesn’t notice me!
Cause she is watchin’ wrestling
Creamin’ over tough guys
Listenin’ to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes
It’s like a bad movie
She is lookin’ through me
If you were me, then you’d be
Screamin’ “Someone shoot me!”
As I fail miserably,
Tryin’ to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She likes the Godsmack and I like Agent Orange
Her cd changer’s full of singers that are mad at their dad
She says she’d like to score some reefer and a forty
She’ll never know that I’m the best that she’ll never have
And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She’ll never notice me!
Cause she is watchin’ wrestling
Creamin’ over tough guys
Listenin’ to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes
She likes ‘em with a mustache
Racetrack season pass
Drivin’ in a Trans-Am
Does a mullet make a man?
It’s like a bad movie
She is lookin’ through me
If you were me, then you’d be
Screamin’ “Someone shoot me!”
As I fail miserably,
Tryin’ to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
There she goes again
With fishnets on, and dreadlocks in her hair
She broke my heart, I wanna be sedated
All I wanted was to see her naked!
Now I am watchin’ wrestling
Tryin’ to be a tough guy
Listenin’ to rap metal
Turntables in my eyes
I can’t grow a mustache
And I ain’t got no season pass
All I got’s a moped…moped….moped…..
It’s like a bad movie
She is lookin’ through me
If you were me, then you’d be
Screamin’ “Someone shoot me!”
As I fail miserably,
Tryin’ to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
(There she goes again)
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
(There she goes again)
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!
She’s the girl all the bad guys want!

China reinforcing its own negative image?

This is a comment that I posted on Zen’s blog, that she has yet to approve. I don’t expect her to for obvious reasons, so I’ve decided to repost it here for all to read. I’ve changed a few words here and there just to make things clearer, but the changes are in no way significant any way you look at it. The original post on Zen’s blog is here.
This is my comment. For it to make sense, read Zen’s post first. Then read this. I am only posting this coz Zen hasn’t/won’t approve it on her blog.
“Hmmm… insomnia brought me to this blog and I came across this post.
And you’re right. By swapping the kid, they have shown an image of China. Just not the image they should have shown. By doing so, they have brought greater disregard and disrespect than they would have had they actually put the real girl up there. Right now, what they are saying is “China only has good looking people, the not-so-good-looking ones are kept hidden away”. Right? Hmmm maybe they execute the not so good looking ones.
It’s a pity really. They are just helping to perpetuate the negative image the westerners have of them. This is the 4th or 5th controversy to have come out of the Olympics to date that I’ve heard of, and I don’t even care for the Olympics!
Also, in regards to the senior medical staff comments, it may be hard for the westerners to differentiate between the various eastern races, but don’t forget, they can tell the difference between the various caucasian races that we easterners can’t, merely due to the fact that, for most of us, our eyes are trained to differentiate eastern races, and theirs western races. This was a point that was brought up during the AMSA ’05 by the way, and agreed upon by participants from both east and west.
With that, I bid you goodnight. ”
What with the fake televised fireworks (a work of skill and ingeniuty on the part of whoever thought it up, really), the underaged gymnast, the fake ethnic kids that they originally said were from the respective ethnicities, their lies about not censoring the Internet for international journalist, and this substitution of the poor girl during the opening ceremony, China is just showing the world an image that is definitely negative, and merely proving the words of all the nay sayers.
And for those of you that say “It’s China’s internal affairs, shut up, nothing to do with you, blah blah blah”, well, this is the Olympics, and everything that happens in regards to the Olympics isn’t an internal affair, it’s international. If I wanted to talk about internal affairs, I’d talk about Tibet and China’s humans rights records, and all sorts of other things that I’d be able to dig up online. But since I’m not talking about internal affairs, I won’t.

The origin of Johnny B. Goode

From the Onion:
WENTZVILLE, MOâIn a shocking revelation that turns a half century of rock-and-roll history on its head, legendary musician Chuck Berry recalled Monday how he got the idea for his iconic song “Johnny B. Goode”âbelieved for decades to have been written by Berry himselfâafter listening to a white teenager playing it over the telephone. “I’ll never forget that night back in 1955 when I got the call from [cousin] Marvin [Berry] saying, ‘Chuck, this is that sound you’ve been looking for!’” recounted Berry, explaining that his cousin was playing an “Enchantment Under The Sea”âthemed high school dance when the mysterious teen, Calvin Klein, took to the stage and single-handedly invented rock and roll as we now know it. “Marvin held up the phone and I heard the song that would make me famous. Then I stole it.”
I KNEW IT!!!!

And the video of the song when it was “originally” played:
